But people invite friends over for a BBQ for these events. Anyway, I reckon the estimate is way over 5 million.Works on an average number of people per ratings unit in each household. It’s a well established system. It can’t assume you had a visitor or mum went out for tea
You can estimate all you like mate. The ratings system is well established based on significant statistical analysis and testing over many decades. ‘I think’ doesn’t really cover it. Remember it’s based on sampling. It’s not a wild guess.But people invite friends over for a BBQ for these events. Anyway, I reckon the estimate is way over 5 million.
Ok mate,did they count the 500 last night at my local club?You can estimate all you like mate. The ratings system is well established based on significant statistical analysis and testing over many decades. ‘I think’ doesn’t really cover it. Remember it’s based on sampling. It’s not a wild guess.
Be as stubborn as you like. It doesn’t mean anything. The ratings system doesn’t and can’t count clubs. It counts the amount of people with ratings boxes in their household who turned on the game and averaged out the amount of time they kept the game on.Ok mate,did they count the 500 last night at my local club?
Sorry I'm a very stubborn person,I sometimes don't believe these stats.
Well the dick advertisers should go to venues across NSW and Queensland,they'll be shocked just how many watch the games that don't get counted. Last night I drove past two venues after the game and people were outside leaving after origin, it's mind blowing.Be as stubborn as you like. It doesn’t mean anything.

I worked in stats for some years. Deniers are just people who don’t like what they read. Advertisers want hard evidence. Ratings provide hard evidence. Television executives don’t say to themselves ‘it says 3 million but I reckon it’s ……’. If you want to argue against statistical analysis go find a wall and bang your head.

Oh well good luck with your personal crusade to convince advertisers to look beyond hard statistical factsWell the dick advertisers should go to venues across NSW and Queensland,they'll be shocked just how many watch the games that don't get counted.

Like the Melbourne cup the race that stops the nation.
Origin is the same,if not better then the boring horse racing crap.
Well it's not fact,it's fictionOh well good luck with your personal crusade to convince advertisers to look beyond hard statistical facts
Get over it mate. You are wasting your time. And being really annoying as well.Well it's not fact,it's fiction
Stop making sense. Stats like these are the best way of measuring an audience within reason. It’s as close to factual as is reasonably possible. Hypothesising about people in pubs and clubs is pointless as there is no way of measuring it even remotely accurately.It’s definitely not a fact as it’s a sample size , but it’s the most cost effective system that they are willing to use . Also I don’t think it matters as much how many people in pubs, clubs and social events are watching the game as they don’t have that 1 on 1 connection with the tv that the advertisers want ( as that is the only reason for the ratings).
It's annoying coz the truth hurtsGet over it mate. You are wasting your time. And being really annoying as well.
Well it's not fact,it's fiction
Well I dont care, I know it was over 5 billion.Its called sampling and its absoluately a legitimate form of statistical data gathering.
Pointless putting this data up mate. There is an idiot here who knows better
Yup i know much better then you, you just talk shitPointless putting this data up mate. There is an idiot here who knows better
